Trans and gender diverse community. (that is, transgender, transsexual and other gender diverse people) are among some of the most disadvantaged members of the Victorian community. This segment of the population experiences disproportionately high rates of social isolation, unemployment and suicide compared to many other members of the wider community.

We believe that more needs to be done to improve the health and wellbeing of trans and gender diverse people in Victoria. Establishing and funding a community driven and controlled gender centre would be a sensitive and proactive response to this problem.

How will the funds be used

ZBGC's long-term goal is to establish a permanent physical space for sex and gender diverse people in Victoria. We are continuing to progress this goal alongside our vitally important work of providing services to the community now.

Provide support, information and referrals

Run events, workshops and campaigns

Advocate and educate about issues of gender diversity

Establish a physical gender centre - one that will host groups and services that are complementary to our mission

Improve the healthcare of trans* and gender variant people.
